Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Always enjoyed this one. It was a drop in quality after Wasting Light (but that one is, for me, one of Foo's best records, period) and it was a little too wrapped up in its each-song-a-different-city concept, but overall it rocks.

Some 2023 releases which should result in some decisions for my year list. Working from home in these weeks results in at least 6-8 hours of music a day which is a good thing.

Yesterday and today:
Blut Aus Nord - Disharmonium - Nahab
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Petrodragonic Apocalypse
Marianas Rest - Auer
Myrkur - Spine
Orbit Culture - Descent
Morne - Engraved with Pain
Mayfire - Cloudscapes & Silhouettes
Hexvessel - Polar Veil
Night Verses - Every Sound Has A Color In The Valley Night: Part 1
Modder - The Great Liberation Through Hearing

Still recommend that Mayfire album for this forum.

Night Verses and Hexvessel are late discoveries for me that I really enjoy.

John Lenehan - The Piano Music of Ludovico Einaudi

Some of his renditions are better than the original IMO.

I'm normally super-picky about this sort of dissonant/avant-garde extreme metal.  Somehow this just hits the right spot.  This is part of why you run roulettes, to find things that you otherwise might have overlooked.  Hat tip to Nachtmerrie for sending a track from the album from the prior year.  Definitely in the same vein, kind of Lovecraftian-sounding stuff.

My ears are on vacation this week. Not really listening to anything new or harsh...just some classics.

Today at work..

Another really solid late year contender.  Probably not enough time to give it its due, but this was surprisingly good.  Someone described it as being black metal with hints of Viva Emptiness-era Katatonia, and wow, they're not wrong.  Moreso the 10th anniversary expanded version with a fuller sound and lusher instrumentation.

Peter Gabriel - i/o

In all my years on this forum, for some reason nobody's ever sent me a Peter Gabriel song in a roulette, thus I gave his last album a chance. Interesting stuff, Playing for Time is great, and the rest of the album is cool so far.

I didn’t realize you were unacquainted with his work. You’ve got a lot to look forward to.

It's been cold here in FL for a few days, and the house is still really cold. So, it's time for my yearly ritual to listen to Frost* - Milliontown. My favorite "winter" album.
